I ran Rubicon express HD one for about six months. held up great. I know some others on here that have had good luck with them for longer. I would still use it, but I had to make a custom one. I still have part of it if you want it. but its missing the frame side joint, jam nut, and bracket and braket hardware

I had both the regular and heavy Duty version of the Rubicon Express track bar. The regular one failed on the frame side where the joint meets the threaded end of the track bar. I then upgraded to the heavy duty version.

Here is a pic of the Rubicon Express Heavy Duty bracket:

Here is a pic of the original one egged out:

I run a Currie... no complaints once I got the jam nut tight...

You'll need a 9/16th hole in the track bar mount (assume you have that already... but just in case) and an 18" Adjustable wrench (nut over 1 1/4")...

Has held up very nicely on and off the road.

No complaints at all.
